  • Maritime Security
    Australia and New Zealand in the Asia Pacific. Maritime Security Maritime security is of vital importance to Australia and New Zealand, as both countries depend on maritime transport for their economic survival. Since the events of 11 September 2001 serious questions have been raised as to whether Australia and New Zealand are adequately prepared for the con- sequences of a major disruption of global shipping following a terrorist attack on a leading regional port such as Hong Kong or Singapore. Considerable efforts have been undertaken to improve responses to an array of maritime security threats, such as transnational crime, environmental pollution and piracy and armed robbery. This volume identifies the issues that particularly affect Australia and New Zealand’s maritime security, evaluating the issues from legal and political perspec- tives, and proposes methods for improving the maritime security of the two coun- tries. While the focus is primarily on Australia and New Zealand, the scope extends to regional considerations, addressing matters related to Pacific island states, South East Asia and the Antarctic and sub-Antarctic regions. The book also addresses strategic partnerships, examining the influence of the United States, and analyses issues within the broad framework of international law and politics. Maritime Security: International Law and Policy Perspectives from Australia and New Zealand will be of great interest to scholars of international law, international relations and maritime affairs, maritime industry professionals, private and government lawyers, as well as diplomats, consuls and government officials. Natalie Klein is an Associate Professor at Macquarie Law School, Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia. Joanna Mossop is a Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Law at Victoria University of Wellington, Wellington, New Zealand.

  • Timing Is Everything
    Chapter 2 The ANZACS, Part 1—The Frigate that wasn’t a Frigate As long ago as 1954 the cost of replacement frigates had been an issue. Almost a quarter of a century later, the 1978 Defence Review made the observation that `the high costs of acquiring and maintaining modern naval ships and systems compounds the difficulty of reaching decisions which will adequately provide for New Zealand's future needs at sea'.1 Indeed `extensive enquiries to find a replacement for HMNZS Otago made it clear that the cost of a new frigate had gone beyond what New Zealand could afford'.2 This observation led to the serious consideration of converting the Royal New Zealand Navy (RNZN) to a coast guard service, but the Government rejected the notion on the basis that, although a coast guard could carry out resource protection tasks, it would mean the end of any strategic relationship with our ANZUS Treaty partners, and the RNZN would no longer be able to operate as a military force. The Chief of Naval Staff, Rear Admiral Neil D. Anderson, said that the New Zealand Government's commitment to maintaining a professional fighting navy was `a magnificent shot in the arm for everyone in the Navy'.3 The Government remained committed to a compact multi-purpose navy, and calculated that a core operational force of three ships would be the minimum necessary force. These ships were to be the Leander-class frigates HMNZS Waikato and HMNZS Canterbury (commissioned in 1966 and 1971 respectively), and the older Type 12 frigate HMNZS Otago.

For many divers, this area has a certain mystique. many have heard of it, but few seem to know where it is or have actually dived it. Research over recent years has found areas frequented by the migrating Hammerheads between Little Barrier and Great Barrier Islands. The most successful observations of the Hammerheads is when snorkelling, but they are often spotted when SCUBA diving as well. Add to this huge crayfish, and massive torpedo-sized kingfish, these dive sites are not to be missed... Great Barrier Island is a rich eco-system fed by the East Auckland current that travels through the famous Poor Knights and Mokohinau Islands. The climate is sub-tropical providing temperate waters and with its colourful volcanic history, there is plenty to explore underwater.

We are as proud of Ernest Rutherford, known as the father of nuclear science, as of our nuclear-free status. Early enthusiasm for radium and X-rays in the first half of the twentieth century and euphoria in the 1950s about the discovery of uranium in a West Coast road cutting was countered by outrage at French nuclear testing in the Pacific and protests against visits from American nuclear-powered warships.
